AIR FORCE BOARD FOR CORRECTION OF MILITARY RECORDS 

RECORD OF PROCEEDINGS 

 
 
 

 
 
 

DOCKET NUMBER:  BC-2012-02297 
COUNSEL: NONE 
HEARING DESIRED:  NO 

IN THE MATTER OF:   
 
 
     
 
     
 
 
________________________________________________________________ 
 
APPLICANT REQUESTS THAT:  
 
His  home  of  record  (HOR)  be  changed  from  Mariposa/Mountain, 
California to Okemos, Michigan. 
 
________________________________________________________________ 
 
APPLICANT CONTENDS THAT: 
 
His parents and his immediate family reside in Okemos, Michigan.  
His family has lived there since 1994.  He lived there until his 
graduation in June 2007.  He left Michigan and temporarily moved 
to California to work for the national park service as a summer 
employee.   
 
On  25  July  2007,  he  entered  the  Delayed  Entry  Program  and 
ultimately  enlisted  into  the  Air  Force  on  8  January  2008.  
During  that  process,  his  home  of  record  was  incorrectly  listed 
as  Mariposa,  California.    He  has  never  permanently  lived  in 
California and has no familial connection there. 
 
In  support  of  his  appeal,  the  applicant  provides  a  personal 
statement,  his  high  school  diploma,  college  transcripts,  his 
driver’s  license  and  documentation  from  his  master  personnel 
records. 
 
The  applicant’s  complete  submission,  with  attachments,  is  at 
Exhibit A. 
 
________________________________________________________________ 
 
STATEMENT OF FACTS: 
 
The applicant is a senior airman in the Regular Air Force.  His 
DD  Form  4/1,  Enlistment/Reenlistment  Document  Armed  Forces  of 
the  United  States, reflects Mariposa, California as his home of 
record at the time of his enlistment.    
 
 
 
 
 

 

 

AIR FORCE EVALUATION: 
 
AFPC/DPSIPE recommends denial.  The applicant’s records reflect 
Mariposa, California as the state he lived in prior to entering 
the  Air  Force.    The  DD  Form  4  is  the  source  document  for  the 
HOR.    That  same  address  is  listed  as  the  member’s  current 
address  at  the  time  of  enlistment.    The  Joint  Federal  Travel 
Regulation  for  Uniformed  Service  Members  Appendix  A  states  the 
home  of  record  is  the  place  recorded  as  the  home  of  the 
individual  when  commissioned,  appointed,  enlisted,  inducted  or 
ordered into a tour of active duty.   
 
There  was  no  error  or  justification  that  warrants  a  change  in 
the member’s home of record.   
 
The  complete  DPSIPE  evaluation,  with  attachments,  is  at 
Exhibit B. 
 
________________________________________________________________ 
 
 
APPLICANT'S REVIEW OF AIR FORCE EVALUATION: 
 
A  copy  of  the  Air  Force  evaluation  was  forwarded  to  the 
applicant on 19 June 2012, for review and comment within 30 days 
(Exhibit  C).    As  of  this  date,  this  office  has  received  no 
response. 
 
________________________________________________________________ 
 
THE BOARD CONCLUDES THAT: 
 
1.  The  applicant  has  exhausted  all  remedies  provided  by 
existing law or regulations. 
 
2.  The application was timely filed. 
 
3.  Insufficient  relevant  evidence  has  been  presented  to 
demonstrate  the  existence  of  error  or  injustice.    The 
applicant’s contentions are duly noted; however, he has provided 
no evidence which would lead us to believe the home of record or 
his  place  of  entry  currently  reflected  in  his  records  was 
incorrectly  recorded  at  the  time  he  initially  came  on  active 
duty.    Therefore,  we  agree  with  the  opinion  and  recommendation 
of the Air Force office of primary responsibility and adopt its 
rationale as the basis for our conclusion that the applicant has 
not been the victim of an error or injustice.  In the absence of 
evidence to the contrary, we find no basis to recommend granting 
the relief sought in this application.

THE BOARD DETERMINES THAT: 
 
The  applicant  be  notified  that  the  evidence  presented  did  not 
demonstrate  the  existence  of  material  error  or  injustice;  that 
the  application  was  denied  without  a  personal  appearance;  and 
that  the  application  will  only  be  reconsidered  upon  the 
submission of newly discovered relevant evidence not considered 
with this application.
